2 each ...  3 1/2" X 3" Very Vanilla Card Stock (scrap piece will do)

Layering Ovals Framelits Dies
Cherry Cobbler Ink Pad
Basic Rhinestone Jewels
Tombow Liquid Adhesive
Snail Adhesive

Products needed for this project. I forgot to add...Cherry Cobbler ink pad, gems and a bow to the photograph.

Take your 8 1/2" piece of very vanilla and place the die on the edge. Run through your big shot. 

Fold in half and burnish with bone folder for a nice crisp finished edge.

Now place the edge die on the cherry cobbler card stock and the snowflake die on the very vanilla card stock then run through your big shot.

The arrows are pointing to the oval framelits i used.

Now using Cherry Cobbler (Not real red as shown in photo...sorry) ink, stamp the sentiment on a scrap piece of very vanilla card stock. Run snowflakes and ovals through your big shot.

Place the cherry cobbler edgelit on inside of card and stamp sentiment inside with cherry cobbler ink.

Attach ribbon on snowflake using snail adhesive

To easily apply liquid glue ...put a small amount on a silicone mat if you have one or scrap paper and using a sponge dab it on the back of snowflake die cut being careful not to move it. Then apply to the bottom front of your card.

Glue oval with sentiment onto cherry cobbler oval. Apply to card. Add the small snowflakes (use the sponge glue method) to the left and right of sentiment. Add a bow and some gems to complete the beautiful finished card.

I"M THANKFUL FOR YOU CARD

What you will need:

8 1/2" X 5 1/2" Very Vanilla Thick Card Stock
Scrap piece of Very Vanilla (For punched sentiment)
1/2" X 4 1/4 Berry Burst Card Stock
Sunflower from Painted Harvest Set (stamped and cut out for mask)
Painted Harvest Stamp Set
Daffodil Delight Ink Pad
Berry Burst Ink Pad
Tip Top Taupe Ink Pad
Early Espresso Ink Pad
Old Olive Ink Pad
Snail Adhesive
Stampin Dimensional's

Score Very Vanilla Thick Card Stock at 4 1/4. Fold and burnish with bone folder for a nice crisp looking edge.

Using large sunflower stamp in daffodil delight ink and stamp 3 images onto card front

Now take the 2nd smaller detailed sunflower stamp in Berry Burst and stamp over the top of daffodil delight image.

Then take the flower center and stamp the middles in Tip Top Taupe and then the little spot stamp in center with Early Espresso ink. 

Now take your mask (sunflower cutout) and place over the first sunflower so you can add the leaves. We do this so the leaves look like they are under the sunflower not on top of it. Now ink up your detailed leaf stamp in Old Olive and stamp off onto scrap paper before applying on card, (2nd generation stamping) just makes the ink a little lighter

Now Stamp sentiment on Very Vanilla Scrap using Berry Burst Ink.

Then punch out with the "Pretty Label" punch

Using snail adhesive put Berry Burst strip about 1" up from the bottom and add sentiment with dimensional's.

I hope you enjoy making this card. I absolutely love the Painted harvest stamp set. There are so many color combinations you can use. I made some bookmarks with different combinations I liked when i first got this stamp set I wrote the colors on the back of each, this way i won't have to figure them out again and i just keep them in the case with the stamps.

Would make a lovely gift in one of the acetate card boxes. Decorate as you like.

Cut your Petal Garden DSP strips in various widths. (You can use the excess pieces when we trim them for the next card).

Cover the 3 3/4" x 5" Very vanilla card stock with Multipurpose Adhesive. (I used tear tape as I don't have the sheets yet) Peel off the backing.

After you have applied all your strips turn it over so you can see where to trim.

Trim all the paper of and you can re-use most of it as long as you cut it straight again (on one end).

Apply herringbone to Calypso Coral cardstock then apply both to very vanilla card.  Using your big shot, die cut labels using  #4 (Counting from the smallest up) in Very Vanilla and label #5 in Calypso Coral.

I used Special Celebrations 1 of 2  stamp set for sentiment on front "This card is filled with love...). There are lots to choose from.  (Adjust label size if doing a different stamp)

I added a strip of the Petal Garden DSP on the inside as well as the sentiment

from Special Celebrations 2 of 2 "and hugs and happiness and hope from my heart straight to yours".  To complete the card i added some clear rhinestones to the front and a bow made with calypso coral ribbon. My other cards are ready for me to put sentiments on.
